Masale Bhaat is a delicious and nutritious rice preparation from the state of Maharashtra. This is a traditional dish, which is specially prepared by certain communities in Maharashtra on the auspicious occasion of Marathi New Year i.e. Gudhi Padwa, alongwith shrikhand poori! In the olden days during wedding ceremonies when only traditional food was served, Masaale Bhaat would be served alongwith Varan Bhaat for sure.

The unique Goda Masala and the Aambe Mohar rice variety, used in this preparation gives it a wonderful flavour. This is a masala used by specific communities in Maharashtra in their daily cooking, then be it in daals, masaale bhaat or vegetables. This masala differs a lot from the commonly used garam masala and do does this rice dish from any other biryani or masala rice dishes!

Generally the Aambe Mohar rice variety is preferred for this dish, but one can always substitute it with the Kolam or Basmati rice. Old Aambe Mohar and Kolam rice varieties absorb almost triple the quantity of water. Whereas, if using Basmati rice, then only double the quantity of water is required.

Vegetables of one’s choice can be used in this preparation, but the brinjals and green peas are a must! Ivy gourds (tendli /tondli) too are sometimes thinly sliced and used in the masale bhaat. Again the fresh grated coconut and homemade ghee drizzled on top while serving, gives it an absolutely delicious flavour and is a must while serving!
